Keep as null element zero = 0

Up  Previous  Next

Element number 0 is entered in a data record when a facet does not participate in generating an observation. If you wish to use element 0 as an active element number, and use another element number to indicate no facet participation, specify the other element number here. This null element number will apply to all facets.

 

Example: Element number 0 means "Short", and "1" means "Tall". "9" means "not applicable".

Keepasnull = 9

Labels=

4, Height

0 = short

1 = tall

Data=

23,9,14,0,2 ; facet 2 does not participate, facet 4 has element number 0

23,7,14,1,4 ; all facets active

23,9,14,9,3 ; facets 2 and 4 not participating
